Autotrasplante renal por aneurisma de arteria renal en un paciente con riñón funcional único: reporte de un caso

Abstract

Renal autotransplantation is a surgical procedure performed with very low frequency, especially in cases in which the patient has a solitary kidney and in which the procedure is indicated by a vascular abnormality. In this article, we report the case of a 52 year-old patient undergoing a nephrectomy incision with ex-vivo repair of a renal aneurysm plus autotransplantation. Additionally, we report the evolution after surgery at the 8th year of follow up.
